Mysore Young Researchers Receive National Science Award for Eco‑Friendly Packaging Innovation
A team of young scientists from Mysore was honoured with a prestigious national science prize for developing environmentally friendly, water‑resistant natural packaging materials.
A team of young researchers from Mysore, Karnataka, has been honoured with a prestigious national science prize by the central government for their work on eco‑friendly and water‑resistant natural packaging materials.
The researchers focused on developing packaging solutions derived from natural resources that are both environmentally sustainable and capable of resisting moisture, addressing growing concerns over plastic waste and food preservation.
The award recognises the potential of these biodegradable packaging alternatives to reduce reliance on conventional plastics and to support India's push for greener technologies.
Officials noted that such innovations align with national objectives to promote sustainable manufacturing and could pave the way for broader commercial adoption across the country.
